HDB launches seven build-to-order projects

95% of the 4,191 new flats will be set aside for first-timers in flat allocation.

In a release, HDB launched seven BTO projects, offering 4,191 new flats in two non-mature towns (Choa Chu Kang and Punggol) and three mature towns (Bukit Merah, Clementi and Geylang). This is the fourth BTO launch this year and HDB remains on track to launch 25,000 flats this year.

Here's more from HDB:

To ensure first-timers continue to enjoy priority in flat allocation, at least 95% and 85% of the BTO flat supply (excluding Studio Apartments) in mature towns and non-mature towns respectively will be set aside for them.

Eligible first-timer households can also enjoy various housing grants to help them own a new BTO flat.

In Sep 2012, HDB will offer 3,700 new BTO flats for sale in Ang Mo Kio, Choa Chu Kang, Kallang Whampoa, Tampines and Woodlands. More information is available on the HDB website.

HDB will also offer 3,000 flats in a concurrent Sale of Balance Flats (SBF) exercise. The balance flats will have good geographical spread and comprise flats from both mature and non-mature estates.

Applications for the new flats launched can be submitted online from today, 31 July 2012 (Tuesday), to 6 Aug 2012 (Monday).

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.

The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.

So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
